I have a strong interest in vascular and cardiothoracic surgery, and I’d love to get involved in EUSCTS. I’m running for academic lead as I’m interested in medical education. I’m currently participating in the UG certification in medical education and have experience running tutorials for AIM and the Anatomy Society (ESAS). Having also coordinated multiple outreach workshops with ESSS, I’m confident in my ability to deliver high quality interactive events with engaging content. If elected, I plan to expand EUSCTS’s academic events to include a webinar series to keep our members engaged throughout the year with exciting content relating to Cardiothoracic surgery. I’d also like to resume our previous collaboration with AIM in hosting Cardio-related tutorials. To do this, I’ll liaise with publicity to ensure maximum output from these events. Thank you for considering me! :DLeadership role achieved!!
